Hunthouse G-Control 95mm Slow-Sinking Minnow Jerkbait
Hunthouse G-Control 95mm Slow-Sinking Minnow Jerkbait
The G-Control is a slow-sinking minnow built for anglers who want a bait that hangs in the strike zone instead of rushing through it. The slim 95mm profile and internal weight system give it a tight, natural wobble on the retrieve and a subtle side-to-side glide on the pause, mimicking a dying or disoriented baitfish.
At 28g it casts far and holds depth well in wind or current, making it a strong choice for largemouth working points and drop-offs or smallmouth suspended over deeper structure. Fish it with a slow twitch-pause retrieve when bass are keying on shad or minnows in cooler water or after a cold front.

How to fish it
- Cast past the target area and let the bait sink to the desired depth before starting your retrieve.
- Use a slow twitch-twitch-pause cadence, letting the bait glide and settle between movements.
- Slow the retrieve and lengthen pauses in cold water or when bass seem sluggish.
- Target points, drop-offs, and suspended fish over deep structure where the slow sink keeps the bait in the zone longer.
Frequently asked
Yes, the slow-sinking design and natural wobble make it well suited to smallmouth holding over deep structure in clear water, especially with a slow twitch-pause retrieve.
A medium-power spinning or casting rod with 8-12 lb fluorocarbon or 20-30 lb braid with a fluorocarbon leader gives good casting distance and sensitivity for detecting subtle strikes.
Natural silver and shad patterns work best in clear water, while darker or higher-contrast colors like black-red show up better in stained or murky conditions.
Yes, the sturdy build and treble hooks make it capable in light saltwater applications, though it is primarily designed and fished for largemouth and smallmouth bass.
